Widnes had not a single bounce go their way, it's tough. We've been there

We didn't do too much but our defence absolutely smothered them

Ormsby didn't even turn up to Salford game when he was in the 19, ware of space, does he have 1 or 2 years left?

How was Ridyard last night?

Played well, solid as ever. We need to get him signed up!

Thought Dickinson had his best game in a giants shirt.

Fearless running forward , and great in defence.

He'll be a big miss against Leigh.

Can't believe I'll be a Wigan fan for the next 6 days!

I really hope not! We have missed him desperately this season - he has more rugby brains in his little finger than the rest of our squad in total. Not to mention that nobody else in our squad seems capable of putting boot to ball! It has to rank as one of the most bizarre and disappointing decisions we have ever made, to offload him to one of our (then) main bottom four opponents, and see him help them into the top 8's!



By the way, you guys may have reckoned this to be a disappointing season, but working your way out of the bottom four, when all seemed a bit grim, has been an outstanding achievement.



Another huge win for you next week, as we have been scrupulously fair in our treatment of 'at risk' teams - we have let them all hammer us! (to lull them into a false sense of security, come the 'Middle 8's'

)

I'm not - I'm hoping catalan and wire beat them- then Leeds too to put them in the bottom 4! I fancy a nice trip to catalan in August!

what a drab game to watch! game was over as a contest after we went up 18-0 early.

but 40-0 everyone would have taken that before the game





widnes will improve when they get chase and hanbury back in the team, certainly need too!

great result for us, hoping for a wigan win today and that should be enough for top 8.

should be winning again next week anyway, leigh nothing to play for.

yep ahead of mason all day long now.

so you want us to finish in the bottom 4?

oh yeh forgot about that!

hmm more shaking up the side to be done!

brough with gaskell... sam wood to centre maybe... or will be mellor...depends on his injury.

Great win for your team last night, especially with the amount of injuries you had.

We won't finish in the bottom four if we win our games. I'd rather play wire and Catalan than Wigan- and we wouldnt have to put up with the arrogant Wigan fans for a few months either!

i know! 10 players out from the first team squad too



heres the list as i know you love everything giants!

mamo
murphy
symonds
ferguson
lawrence
turner
ikahihifo
mason
simpson
wardle

You can't count Wardle mate, he's played 4 academy games in 2 years and no first team ever

Thorman pretty much confirmed to me on Twitter hes out for season. If he can't get fit for the start of next season his career must be over?

If I've got it right, should Wigan beat Wire on Thursday we are safe in the 8 whatever we do against Leigh or Hull. Unless Catalan can score over 200 points in 2 games.
An unbelievable thought after the Swinton game.

Indeed, it's also good job the club doesn't listen to the 'fans' cos if they did we would have lost (got rid of..) our entire coaching team as well as most of our 1st team players.

Thank god there was still some of us with faith !! (club apologist, ostrich and W***ker were just some of the things i was called for suggesting we give them time).







Some were never coming to a game again while 'he's in charge' but were celebrating like a club apologist on Friday!!!

Yep that's right.
However if Wigan lose to wire and we beat Leigh we go back up to 7th and are safe!

Not me. Don't like to see anyone get the chop but I think Ken had to act over Baloo. Liked Rick since he started. Seems cool under pressure and has certainly done a good job so far. Imagine another season with his own players. Future's looking good.

Yep, he did say it would take 2-3 years to sort out the mess, if he can do it - and he is, he can have all the time he likes for me !

That's the ideal scenario for me lol
Though I'd rather see Wigan win then it almost not matter what we do...that way recruitment for next season can start on Friday morning

still in the first team squad but yes.

correct

and yes who would have thought that after the swinton game, stone was being sacked by everyone and we wasnt winning another game all season!
